Given the following equation, HCl aq) + NaOH aq
NaClaq) + H2O(l)
How many moles of H20 will be produced if there are 5 moles of HCI?

5 moles

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of HCl = 5 mol

Number of moles of H₂O produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

HCl + NaOH     →   NaCl + H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of HCl with H₂O.

                          HCl            :           H₂O

                             1               :             1

                             5               :            5

5 moles of water will be produced.
